Chapter 160: Chapter 160 Eat Well_1

"Ms. Xia." The female housekeeper greeted her and then stood aside while several servants came down from upstairs. However, Qi Cheng was nowhere to be seen.

Xia Duo felt a bit disappointed and asked, "Where is Mr. Qi?"

"Sir is, of course, at work."

"He didn’t come over?" Xia Duo asked in surprise.

"Did sir say he would come over?" The female housekeeper looked at her in confusion.

"Then what are you doing here?" Xia Duo frowned. She thought about how Ji Yunhuan was happily chatting with another man, and Qi Cheng could still remain calm. Did this mean he didn’t care about Ji Yunhuan at all? Did he send the female housekeeper here, or perhaps wanted the female housekeeper to teach Ji Yunhuan a lesson on his behalf?

Thinking of this, she steadied her expression.

But then the female housekeeper said, "Mrs. Qi didn’t eat anything before she went out. Sir asked me to bring her some food."

The dishes were brought from home, each carefully packed in an insulated food container. The female housekeeper instructed the people behind her, "Take it upstairs."

Xia Duo widened her eyes, "He had you come here just to bring Ji Yunhuan food?"

The female housekeeper calmly looked at Xia Duo, "What else do you think?"

"Shouldn’t he..." Xia Duo didn’t finish her sentence, unsure if she should speak it out.

The female housekeeper saw through her thoughts and calmly reminded her, "There is something I almost forgot. Sir asked me to convey to Ms. Xia: even if our Mrs. Qi cheats on him right in front of him, he would still love her and not worry about such trivial matters."

Xia Duo froze.

Then her face turned red with anger, "You’re lying! Qi Cheng could never say something like that."

He was a privileged man, always adored by others. Back then, she had just spoken a word to another man and he dumped her. How could he possibly say such a thing?

The female housekeeper had a calm smile on her face and kindly reminded her, "Ms. Xia and sir have been separated for many years. It seems there are still some things you haven’t understood. Did sir really break up with you just because you said a sentence to another man? Not at all! He left you, and no matter how hard you tried, it was useless. Conversely, he likes our Mrs. Qi, and no matter how many things she does to anger him, his liking remains unchanged."

"You..." Though she knew the female housekeeper was a pragmatic person who liked whoever Qi Cheng liked, Xia Duo was still angered by her words.

The female housekeeper instructed people to take the food upstairs and then left, not even meeting Ji Yunhuan.

Ji Yunhuan was still sitting in her seat, while Ning Hao was beside her going on and on about design theories. She was too hungry to listen.

Until the bar manager had someone bring food up to her and placed it in front of her.

She thought it was ordered from a nearby restaurant. When she saw the luxurious meal, she couldn’t help being startled.

Everything was very exquisite, and every dish was top-notch. This must have been made by the Qi family’s chef.

She looked at the manager in surprise, "The food here is quite good."

The manager responded with a flattering smile, "Not at all, these are specially brought over by Mr. Qi for Mrs. Qi."

"Uh..." Ji Yunhuan couldn’t quite believe it, "Qi Cheng?"

"Yes, Mr. Qi had the house servants bring it over." Because of this, the manager’s attitude towards Ji Yunhuan had improved considerably. He didn’t expect Qi Cheng to pamper his wife so much.

With that, he handed over a plate from the side, "And this."

It was a folded card. Ji Yunhuan opened it and saw a few bold words, "Eat well, don’t complain about being hungry tonight!"

"..." Seeing this, Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but laugh.

She originally thought he would be angry with her for going out with her sister-in-law, especially since he didn’t speak to her on the phone. She didn’t expect him to consider that she might be hungry and have such a meal brought over for her from afar.

Thinking about their "battle" last night, her face turned red.

Xia Duo happened to come in from outside, seeing Ji Yunhuan staring at the card with a smile, anger surged in her heart.

Ji Yunhuan felt a cold gaze directed at her, and her sister-in-law walked over, just in time to see Xia Duo standing at the door. Her sister-in-law said, "Xia Duo, why don’t you come in? What are you doing standing there?"

Xia Duo awkwardly walked over, "Sister-in-law."

At the Qi family house, Xia Duo always addressed them as big sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, deliberately making it seem like she and Qi Cheng were still together.

Ji Yunhuan saw Xia Duo and could imagine that she had been staring at her earlier.

Just then, she received a text message. She opened her phone to see four words: "Be careful with Xia Duo."

Sent by Qi Cheng.

She didn’t expect him to send her such a message, Ji Yunhuan was somewhat surprised.

After a whole day out with her sister-in-law, it was already afternoon by the time she got home. They were getting ready for dinner at home. Ji Yunhuan walked in, and the female housekeeper said, "Mrs. Qi, you’re back?"

"Yes." Ji Yunhuan put down her bag, took off her coat, and said to the female housekeeper, "The breakfast today was great, thanks."

She just had to ask the manager to know it was the female housekeeper who had sent it over.

The female housekeeper said, "It was all sir’s idea."

Ji Yunhuan walked to the dining room and saw Qi Cheng with a stern face, his voice cold, "You still know to come back?"

If he hadn’t treated her so well that morning, Ji Yunhuan would’ve thought he was really angry.

She walked to his side but didn’t rush to sit down. She hugged him from behind, "I’m sorry for keeping you waiting. I wanted to come back earlier, but sister-in-law kept holding onto me. I really couldn’t get away."

After leaving the bar, her sister-in-law took them to a spa and helped redesign a few new looks for her eldest sister-in-law, completely transforming her from inside and out.

That’s why it took her so long to get back.

"I think your sister-in-law was your lover in a past life, here in this life to take you from me." Qi Cheng’s voice sounded cold and full of jealousy.

Ji Yunhuan was defeated by his imagination and couldn’t help but laugh, "Lover from a past life? Your imagination is too rich." Ji Yunhuan smiled at him, "I went out with her to express your apologies to our eldest sister-in-law. Don’t hold it against me."

A couple of coaxing words from her, and all his day’s grievances vanished. Qi Cheng couldn’t help but berate himself inwardly. How useless!

"Dinner," he said, keeping his face stern, addressing Ji Yunhuan.

They were supposed to have dinner at her sister-in-law’s, but she didn’t go. Knowing that Qi Cheng was waiting at home for her, she hurried back. Fortunately, she didn’t go. Otherwise, there would be chaos when she returned.

Ji Yunhuan watched as he cut the roast meat for her and added sauce. She recalled the text message he sent in the morning, "Why did you tell me to be careful with Xia Duo?"

Hearing her question, Qi Cheng raised an eyebrow, "You still dare to ask me?"

She paused for a moment, not understanding, "What did I do?"
